>>> linalg.inv(2)
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<stdin>", line 1, in ?
  File "/usr/lib64/python2.4/site-packages/scipy/linalg/basic.py", line
183, in inv
    raise ValueError, 'expected square matrix'
ValueError: expected square matrix
>>> linalg.inv(mat(2))
array([[ 0.5]])

Is this behaviour wanted ?
